Embark on a full day private tour in Athens to explore the ancient world and indulge in traditional Greek cuisine. Discover iconic landmarks, enjoy breathtaking views, and savor authentic Greek dishes.
- Acropolis - The Athens sightseeing tour begins with a visit to the impressive, naturally fortified hill of the Acropolis. This tour includes a walk that takes visitors back in time through one of the world’s oldest cities, considered the cradle of Western civilization and the birthplace of philosophy, theater, and democracy.
Passing through the monumental gate of Propylaea, you’ll see the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion, and the Parthenon. Enjoy panoramic views of Athens and the port of Piraeus. At the base of the Acropolis hill, you’ll find the ancient theater of Dionysos (the world’s oldest theater), the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, and the Areopagus (Mars Hill).
-
Acropolis Museum - The Acropolis Museum is consistently ranked among the world’s best museums. Designed by New York’s Bernard Tschumi and local Greek architect Michael Photiadis, it serves as the perfect sanctuary for ancient artifacts found in and around the Acropolis. The museum effectively reconstructs how the Parthenon sculptures once appeared to the citizens of ancient Athens.
-
Presidential Mansion - The Presidential Palace, formerly known as the New Palace, now houses the Presidency of the Hellenic Republic and serves as the official residence of the President of the Hellenic Republic in Athens. Before the monarchy was abolished by the 1974 referendum, the building was the official palace of the Kings of Greece. Here, you can see the presidential guards, a ceremonial infantry unit that guards the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Presidential Mansion in Athens, Greece.
-
Change of Guards - Unique to Greece are the Evzones and the Changing of the Guard at the presidential mansion, which occurs every day, every hour.
-
Panathenaic Stadium - The Panathenaic Stadium offers a unique opportunity to see what an ancient stadium from the 4th century BC looked like. Unlike typical archaeological sites, there are no ruins here. The stadium was not rebuilt in modern times, but during the first modern Olympic Games in 1896, its marble covering was renovated, financed by Georgios Averof. The current shape of the stadium mirrors that of the ancient 4th-century BC stadium.
-
The Academy of Athens - The Academy of Athens was established by the Constitutional Decree of March 18, 1926, as an Academy of Sciences, Humanities, and Fine Arts. The building is a replica of the Propylaea of the Acropolis.
-
Mount Lycabettus - Lycabettus Hill is the highest point in central Athens. Thousands of Athenians and tourists climb to the top each year to enjoy the view from a height of 277 meters.
-
Plaka - The Plaka area is Athens’ old historical neighborhood, located under the Acropolis, around the northeastern slopes of the Sacred Rock, between Syntagma and Monastiraki metro stations. Its village-like atmosphere, neoclassical buildings, quaint cafes, souvenir shops, and museums make it a favorite among visitors and Athenians who stroll its narrow streets. Plaka attracts hundreds of thousands of tourists year-round.
-
Roman Agora - The Roman Agora was built as an extension of the Ancient Agora to meet the city’s everyday needs. The Ancient Agora was connected to the Roman Agora by a road. Key monuments include the Tower of the Winds and the Library of Hadrian.
-
Monastiraki - A visit to the Monastiraki flea market in Athens is a must. Spanning a large area from Monastiraki Square and metro station to the end of Ermou Street, the flea market is open daily.
-
Paleo Faliro - Palaio Faliro is a beautiful suburb located on the east coast of Phalerum Bay, a bay of the Saronic Gulf, 6 km southwest of Athens city center.
-
Glyfada Beach - Glyfada is home to some of the capital’s most famous nightclubs, upscale restaurants, and shops. It is considered one of the most “Americanized” areas in Athens, as an American airbase was located nearby until the early 1990s.
